## Description

As a System Verification Co-Design Engineer, you will work on system-level speed features, develop verification collateral and automation infrastructure to characterize and validate them, and lead debug of complex silicon issues.

**Responsibilities:**

- Collaborate cross-functionally with system architects, hardware, firmware/software, process/reliability, and operations teams to co-design system-level speed features and deliver industry-defining products.

- Understand system-level behavior and speed reliability margins, bounding box constraints, and identify solutions that optimize margins.

- Translate hardware features and architectural requirements into verification techniques that achieve full coverage across testing flows.

- Perform closed-loop validation by correlating silicon behavior against timing simulation and design expectations; provide actionable feedback to improve future designs.

- Define, prototype, and refine pre- and post-silicon bring-up flows to ensure product quality, performance, and schedule efficiency.

- Design and implement automation tools for system speed modeling; apply AI and LLM-assisted workflows to compress characterization and debug cycles.

- Architect and influence testability features critical to performance, power, and reliability in partnership with design, DFx, and ATE teams.

- Lead debug of complex silicon and system-level issues, including show-stopper defects, to enable on-time product shipment.

**Requirements:**

- MS in EE, CE, Systems Engineering, or equivalent experience.

- 4+ years of experience in a related hardware engineering role.

- Hands-on experience with silicon bring-up, frequency and power characterization, PPA analysis in pre- and post-silicon phases, System/Platform level understanding, tester-to-system correlation, and lab instrumentation.

- Scripting proficiency in Python and/or Perl; comfortable in Windows, Linux, and Android environments.

- Familiarity with statistical methods and data analysis tools.

- Demonstrated use of AI or LLM-based tools in an engineering workflow.

**Benefits:**

- Competitive salaries

- Generous benefits package

- Equity eligibility
